Facebook added new 'care' emoji reaction to your reaction panel amid coronavirus pandemic

Facebook introduced the ability to add reactions to posts in 2016, allowing users to thumbs up or express their love, laughter, sadness or anger at a post.  Facebook recently added a new emoji with heart named care to express your feeling and care towards your friends and family member's post in light of this corona virus pandemic period. 

The new care emoji especially launched for the lockdown period where people are in their respective homes and not able to connect physically but only medium is to contact is social media etc.  Emoji be seen in the reaction panel between heart emoji and laugh emoji the main motto is to show love and care for your dear once whom you are not able to meet due to lockdown. 

Being in lockdown means that many people around the world aren't able to have any contact with their closest friends and family. Covid-19 has limited all human interaction, and as a result everyone is seriously missing their loved ones. 

The only way that we are able to communicate with any friends or family who do not live in your own household is through virtual contact. Being able to FaceTime, Zoom, Text or even just send a funny Meme to a significant person in your life makes missing them that slightly bit easier. 


And to bring a bit more love and positivity in such a dark time, Facebook have decided to add two new reactions to respond to your friend's and family's posts and show them a little bit of love and support.

The message new emoji carries is :
"Even apart, we're in this together" 

facebook further describe emoji as : 
"We've added a new reaction so you can show extra support while many of us are apart. We hope that this helps you, your family and your friends feel a bit more connected."
